Discovery NotesThe soil was collected from greenery next to a University of Pennsylvania student dormitory building. The soil was near wild plants and was slightly damp.
Naming NotesOn the night of September 14, we settled into our second home: Kelly Hall-Floor 5. Days after we moved in, we met some of the most welcoming, wonderful, amicable, and enthusiastic people. After days of card games and late night laughs, we soon became a family. We displayed our loyalty to our floor by creating a slogan: Five For Life.
We chose the name PhivePhorLiphe because as our phage was being cultivated, so was our relationship with our floormates. We want to dedicate our phage to the people who made Drexel University home.
